the number of men wounded and killed

The Bank Of England Doors.

The following paragraph, from the
Sunbeam" corner Of the New York
Sun, is well worth reading: "The Bank
of England doors are now so finely bal
anced that clerk, by pressing knob
under his desk, can close the outer doors
instantly, and they cannot be opened
again except by special process. This
is done to prevent the daring and ingen-
ious unemployed of the metropolis from
rob ing the bank. The bullion depart
ment of this and other banks are nightly
submerged several feet in water by the
action of the machinery. In some banks
the bullion department is connected with

trance cannot be effected without shoot

Making Valentines in London.

There is one London mandatory at
which the making of valentines goes on
all the year. 1t is the headquarters for the
production Of those combinations of laced
and silver paper, springs, notices and lit
tie punches of colored flowers, and much
of the work has to be done 10y hand. The
laced paper, for instance, is laid face down
ward and filed away by hand, and the
stamped paper is but cheap German inn
itation. The valentines are put together
by women, the most expert of whom can
make three dozen day. One curious
thing about their work is that they sub
stitute the third finger of the right hand
for mucilage brush, which, they say, is
useless to them.-Boston Budget.

A Commensurate Project.

Some enterprising business men have
formed an organization known as the
st. Paul Medical and Dental institute
1t will no doubt be gladly welcomed
by our citizens, as the prime feature of
the institution appears to be the COM
mendable object of reducing medical
and dental bills to the minimum.
The names of the gentlemen cOmpOS-
ing the organization, as seen by the cir
cular, give evidence that it is based
upon a substantial foundation and is
amply qualified to perform anything it
may undertake.
1t will probably be a valuable auxil-
larry to the interests of the city in pro-
noting the general health of our peO-
pie.
There are many who are kept poor
from the continued drain upon them be-
cause of sickness, and to these the low
schedule of rates of the organization
will be most cordially accepted.
The circular, in outlining the plans of
the institute, announces that the physi-
clans and dentists employed are men of
integrity and ability, and that there will
be no discrimination between certificate
holders.
Its methods are Endorsed by a number
of leading citizens. ~
